People Are Sharing Things That Are Normal In TV And Movies But NOT In Real Life
Have you ever watched a television show or movie and thought to yourself, 'that's not normal?' Well, you're not alone, and just because something happens all the time in TV shows and movies, that doesn't mean it's something people do in any way in real life. Things like otherwise poor fictional characters living ridiculously lavish lifestyles — Yes, Monica's apartment in Friends is unrealistic!
People tend to notice this sort of thing, and when they do, they like to point it out. Occasionally, this amounts to someone sharing something that bugs them on Reddit, and other users love to pile on. These are the most unusual things that are normal in TV and movies but NOT in real life.

Unpopular (Yet Gorgeous) Teen Living The Hard Life Of Luxury
Posted by u/mmmmor090909:
An unpopular (but never actually ugly) teenager wakes up in their huge upstairs bedroom. The room probably has some kind of bay window or unique ceiling slope. In the 90s and early 2000s, they would of course have their own desktop computer. You only briefly see all of this because they are of course late for school, so they run out to their good-looking parents and siblings already eating a full sit-down breakfast, no explanation is given as to why these siblings aren’t also late for school. Anyway, the main character grabs a single slice of plain toast and skateboards to school through a quaint town square.

This always got me about teen movies - they always have huge gorgeous bedrooms that look like they’re out of an IKEA catalog. My room was so small growing up that it wouldn’t fit a full bed and a dresser, and my furniture was a mash-up of my childhood bedroom set and stuff we weren’t using around the house anymore lmao.

Women In The Jungle Never Regrow Leg Hair
Posted by u/Dream_babe:
Women can be in the jungle for weeks, and they don't have hair growing anywhere. Men immediately begin to grow a beard.

Hitting Someone On The Head With A Bottle To Knock Them Out
Posted by a now-deleted Redditor:
Hitting someone on the head with a whiskey bottle to knock them out. Pretty high risk of killing them.

And then they wake up like they had a good nap and suffer no damage after saying "oof" and touching their head.

Women Running Around In Heels Looking Fabulous
Posted by u/ISeeMusicInColor:
When women run around in heels with perfect hair and makeup, and the dirt and sweat make their hair and makeup look even better.
Looking at you, Jurassic World.
Posted by u/mobethe:
My go-to on that is Megan Fox in the second Transformers movie. She’s running around caves in the desert and never gets a speck of dirt on her white tank top and white pants.

Making Plans Without Actually Planning Anything
Posted by u/bees_knees5628:
On the phone making plans: “ok, meet me at 5?” “sure.” And that’s the whole plan. Where are you meeting? Planning to meet someone in a public place never goes this smoothly
Posted by u/ehnej:
Or just “dinner tonight?” and not even specifying the time. “See you somewhere at some time, bye!”
Posted by u/Mangobunny98:
Yeah or setting up a date with someone you just met like "it's a date" and then they leave. No number or address exchanged, no talk about where you're meeting and when.
